Overview
The study consists of two phases: dose-escalation (Phase I) and cohort expansion (Phase II).
Description
Phase Ia is a dose escalation study to assess the safety and tolerability, and to determine the MTD or MAD and RP2D of BB-1705.
Phase Ib is a cohort expansion study to explore one or more RP2Ds to further assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary anti-tumor activity. Patients with locally advanced and unresectable or metastatic solid tumors who have progressed on prior lines of standard of care therapies will be enrolled in this study if eligible.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
- Willing and able to provide written informed consent form (ICF) for the trial.

- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.
- Life expectancy ≥12 weeks.
- Adequate organ function as indicated by the following laboratory values (had not received blood transfusion, EPO, G-CSF, or other medical support within the 14 days before the administration of BB-1705):
- Women of childbearing potential and males with fertile female partner must be willing to use currently accepted reliable contraception method throughout the treatment period from ICF signed and for at least 6 months following the last dose of BB-1705. These measures include, but are not limited to, oral or implantable injections of hormonal contraceptives; intrauterine birth control ring or placement of IUS intrauterine device); or use of barrier methods such as condoms or septum and spermicide products. Postmenopausal women over 50 years of age must have been amenorrheic for at least 12 months to be considered of non-childbearing potential. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test ≤ 7 days prior to the first dose of investigational product.
